Words to Win: What it Takes to be No. 1

"Winning is not a sometime thing; it's an all the time thing. You don't win once in a while; you don't do things right once in a while; you do them right all the time. Winning is a habit. Unfortunately, so is losing." -Vince Lombardi

Legendary Green Bay Packers football coach Vince Lombardi believed that the ingredients of greatness are not necessarily inherent traits, but qualities to be encouraged and cultured. For the coach, we should be long on encouragement and create an expectation to succeed. For the athlete, we should strive for excellence no matter what the endeavour we choose.
